Ghost Marshal: Justice and Fire

Justice and Fire: A Juneteenth Tale

The war is over. But in the backwoods and bayous of the South, the chains still hold. The old cruelty just changed its clothes. Men in high places-bankers, sheriffs, officers, and preachers-have buried slavery beneath new names. Work camps. Vagrancy laws. Prison labor. Reconstruction in uniform but not in spirit. They call it order. But it's still bondage. And into that darkness rides a man born of fire. Leonard Blackston, a man reborn beneath a lynching tree and given a dying marshal's badge. Now they call him the Ghost Marshal-a myth, a reckoning, a storm in the name of the forgotten. And he's burning the old system down one chain at a time. Beside him rides Raymond Turner, a freed engineer turned liberator, a man burdened by vengeance but called to a higher purpose. And Reverend A.W. Brown, a thunder-voiced preacher who brings revival in the wake of justice. Together, they ride not for vengeance, but for deliverance-a reckoning written in Justice and Fire.
